Attempting to Separate Two Big For

LONDON, Oct. 19-Early yesterday morn
ing there was fearful and exciting battle
In the Jubilee exhibition at Liverpool Del
monico, most plucky tanner Of beasts, has
been exciting the nerves of visitors for a
long time by trifing In the cage with three
big forest lions. Five more lions Of a differ
ent kind, but very big also. arrived from AT
rica yesterday, and were put at once into the
big cage with the three already at home
there. They were quiet when left alone for
the night, but shortly after midnight the
menagerie was filed with frightful roaring,
and the servants sleeping ON the premises
rushed in to find the big iron cage rocking,
and eight lions fighting furiously, rolled up
into huge dark ball. from which the blood
stained fur was flying In all directions
There were two distinct sides TO the battle,
and the new arrivals were pitted at unfair
odds against the lions which had been in
possession. The efforts of the servant to
separate them only increased their fury, and
at last he rushed off for Delmonico, who en-
tered the cage, half clad as he was, and shut
himself in He next opened the door com
municatlng with the second cage, and drove
into 1t. like so many sheep, the six lions that
had been looking on. Meanwhile the two
chief lions were still fighting, although much
weaker.
Delmonico's attempts to separate them
were useless. They were evidently uncon-
scious OF his presence. Before the tanner
could form any plan to separate them the
light ended of itself The big forest lion.

tanner or at the lions in the neichboring

THE BIGGEST MOOSE.
According to the Large Stories Which
are Told About Him.

PHILLIPS, Oct. 19.-An immense moose
the largest ever seen in Maine, is reported To
have been discovered in the Rangeley Lake
region. Crowds of sportsmen are now
tracking him from Kennebago Lake towards
the Cupsuptic. 1t is the belief of people
here generally that he is in hiding around
Lake Cupsuptic. A sportsman at the Bar
den House described the monster He said
he had himself seen the moose as it was en-
route for the Cupsuptic, and his best iudg-
ment placed his height at twenty hands. By
the appearance Of his hair which thickly
covered the body. he should think the ami
NAL was not as old as it had been currently
believed that hewas. Magnificent branch
ing antlers crown his head and his progress
is easy and graceful. although he can, il nee
essary, make the speed of a race horse. An
old resident said, in relation to him, that re-
Gently he first discovered him in a float Of
logs in the lake near his place. He had been
attempting to cross the lake, and had be-
come slightly entangled in the logs
The resident called his two sons and they
opened fire on him. but it seemed, he said,
as is the moose fever" was upon them. One
fired every time too high. and the other. in
the excitement, seized pouch of spent
shells and was cracking empty caps at the
beast. The moose quickly disentangled him
self, reached the shore and sped into the for
est, but before he was entirely out of range
the frst mentioned son planted bullet fair
ly in its rump.
This is said to be the first and only time
that a bullet has grazed his flesh. There is
much excitement among sportsmen about
this moose, and he is the topic of conversa-
ton at the hotels. Tuesday Lieutenant
Governor Sebastion S. Marble and party
were at theE EBarden House and went into
Rangeley, intending to make the Cupsuptic
their destination.

The LonefeIIow statue.

The New York Tribune says: "The first
statue Of the poet Longfellow will be erect

sculptor to whom the commission was given
by memorial association formed in Port
land soon after the poets death, was Mr..
Franklin Simmons, native of Maine, who.
has elected to spend the greater part OF his
professional life in Italy. The clay model,
which has just been finished in Rome, will
be put into bronze within the next six
months, and the statue will probably be un-
yelled IN Portland in the late spring. An
account of the statue in a very eulOgistic
vein which recently appeared In the Paris

Mr.. George w. Cable In the Stock

The third Stockbridge entertainment
which consisted of singing by the Rugges

tied, "Cobwebs in the Church" by Mr.. Geo.
w. Cable, was given at City Hall last even
ing, TO a crowded house. After selection
by the quartette, and solo by Mr.. Herbert
A. johnson, Mr.. Cable was presented to the
audience by Rev. Henry Blanchard, Of the
Congress Square church. Mr.. Gable said:
"Cobwebs; we all know what they are,
both as to their lhstre and TO their nature
Things worthless or worse. yet things some
times priced. Easy indeed, is il for cobwebs
to gather in the church, things which the
outside world don't take hold Of, and II we
do not brush them down they will hang and
continue to collect there. AS one Of the first
eobwebs in the church. shall speak of In
discriminate veneration. Some regard The
church as perfect, and say that II must not
be criticised. All! let 1t not be so. 1t was
not so with the old Israelites; they had no
bugbear in their reverence. Let us ask our
selves how easily we fall into this indiscrim-
mate veneratiOn and guard against II. An

Of the Office and the agent. We have dis
pOSltlOn 10 claim perfection for the church
which we do not possess ourselves. 10 be
sure there was a reformation, but ID was not
absolute; the c0bwebs were swept away, but
the spiders were left and from what re-
manned three great dangers have grown.
They are monasticism, schOlasticism, and In
dividualism.
Another error is mercantile economy. We
look upon the church as an establishment
that must live within its income. The
church Is not bank, and Its members not
depositors. IL Is said that such church has
a debt; but | say there never was church
that owed debt In money. The people are
In debt TO the church, but the church il not

The speaker told many stories 10 illustrate
his lecture. which occupied over one hour
and half Of the evening After he had I'm

the stage, and delighted the audience for the
remainder of the evening with most excel

TO TRY AGAIN.
The Great Concord Fight to be
Wased Anew.

CONCORD, N. H., Oct 19.-The judiciary
committee of the New Hampshire House by
vote of 7 to 5, decided this morning TO re-
commend that the governors vote of the
Hazen bill be Sustained. The minority, re-
presenting the supporters Of the Boston &
Maine, will present report recommending
the passage of the bill over the veto.
There are 305 members in the House and it
will require 204 to pass the bill over the veto.
On the passage 167 members voted in the
affirmative, and its friends do not claim that
they can now secure the necessary two
thirds. The adherents Of the Boston &
Maine are now considering some plan for
securing favorable legislation. and it is not
improbable that they will try to amend the
bill now pending in the House, authorizing
that road to guarantee the covenants of the
Lowell in its lease of the Northern, so that
the Boston a. Maine can lease the Nothern.
Then, too they propose to pass, If possible,
bill permitting the Dover and Winnipis
eogee Zone of the Names leased roads, to
extend its line from Alton bay to Lake Viii
lage, over the some rails covered by the
charter granted the Lake Shore road.
member of the judiciary committee who
strongly espoused the Hazen bill in the
House, said that it is the intention of the
relative to the alleged attempt at bribery by
the Concord railroad lobbyists. This gentle
man also stated that the fight had just begun
and the contest was liable to be prolonged in
the Legislature for week.
The motion to reconsider the vote for
adjournment will now be debated at length
and will be carried if the Boston & Maine
men can muster sufficient strength. Should
this prevail, the governor could prorogue the
Legislature Friday, but ii would be necessary
to call special session, as bill for the APP
portionment of State taxes and several ap-
preparation bills will not have been acted
upon by that time.
Dover was unusually jubilant last night
because of Gov. Sawyer's veto. Bonfires
were burning in every square. There is
plenty OF evidence, as far as Dover is con-
cerned, that the Governors action will meet
with popular approval. The Stratford
Guards assembled at their armory at 10
O'Clock and fired salute in honor of the
governors action.
Similar signs of approval were manifest in
Nashua and Concord. In the latter city
Governor Sawyer had an informal reception
at his rooms at the Eagle Hotel, and hum
dreds OF citizens of Concord and others ir-
respective OF party, called and congratulated
him on his action.

the money. Reed declined.
